The reader: And from Abu Dharr, who said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said when the sun set: Where does it go? I said
The Shaykh : Do you know where it goes?
The reader: أتدري أين تذهب؟ قلت: الله ورسوله أعلم، قال: فإنها تذهب حتى تسجد تحت العرش فتستأذن فيؤذن لها ويوشك أن تسجد ولا يقبل منها وتستأذن فلا يؤذن لها ويقال لها ارجعي من حيث جئتي فتطلع من مغربها فذلك قوله تعالى: والشمس تجري لمستقر لها قال مستقرها تحت العرش Do you know where it goes? I said: Allah and His Messenger know best. He said: It goes until it prostrates beneath the Throne, and it asks for permission, and permission is granted to it. It will soon prostrate and its prostration will not be accepted, and it will ask for permission and it will not be granted to it, and it will be said to it: Return from where you came. So it will rise from the west. That is the saying of Allah the Exalted: "And the sun runs to its resting place." He said: Its resting place is beneath the Throne.

The reader: The author (may Allah have mercy on him) said in his book Mishkat al-Masabih: The chapter on the signs preceding the Hour and the mention of the Dajjal. The first section is from Hudhayfah ibn Asid al-Ghifari, who said:
Hudhaifa b. Asid al-Ghifari told that the Prophet once came on them when they were discussing and asked the subject of their discussion. On being told that they were discussing the last hour he said, "It will not come till you have seen ten signs before it." He then mentioned the smoke,[1] the dajjal, the beast,[2] the rising of the sun in its place of setting, the descent of Jesus, son of Mary, Gog and, Magog,[3] three subsidences, one in the East, one in the West, and one in Arabia
اطلع النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم علينا ونحن نتذاكر فقال: ما تذكرون؟ قالوا: نذكر الساعة، قال: إنها لن تقوم حتى تروا قبلها عشر آيات فذكر الدخان والدجال والدابة وطلوع الشمس من مغربها ونزول عيسى بن مريم ويأجوج ومأجوج وثلاثة خسوف، خسف بالمشرق وخسف بالمغرب وخسف بجزيرة العرب ..The Shaykh : with the raising, a sinking
The reader:
A sinking in the east, a sinking in the west, and a sinking in the Arabian Peninsula, and the last of that is a fire that emerges from Yemen driving people to their gathering place. -And in a narration- a fire that emerges from the bottom of Aden driving people to the gathering place. -And in a narration regarding the tenth- and a wind that casts people into the sea.
خسفٌ بالمشرق وخسفٌ بالمغرب وخسفٌ بجزيرة العرب وآخر ذلك نار تخرج من اليمن تطرد الناس إلى محشرهم -وفي رواية- نار تخرج من قعر عدن تسوق الناس إلى المحشر، -وفي رواية في العاشرة- وريح تلقي الناس في البحرThe Shaykh : Continue.
The reader: And from Abu Hurayrah, who said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
Hasten to do good deeds before six things happen: the smoke, the dajjal, the beast of the earth, the rising of the sun in its place of setting, the trial which will affect all mankind[*], and the one which applies more particularly to one of you.
بادروا بالأعمال ستّاً الدخان والدّجال ودابة الأرض وطلوع الشمس من مغربها وأمر العامة وخويصة أحدكمAnd from Abdullah ibn Amr, who said: I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say:
The first sign (out of the signs of the appearance of the Dajjal) would be the appearance of the sun from the west, the appearance of the beast before the people in the forenoon and which of the two happens first, the second one would follow immediately after that.
إن أول الآيات خروجاً طلوع الشمس من مغربها وخروج الدابة على الناس ضحاً وأيهما كانت قبل صاحبتها فالأخرى على إثرها قريباًAnd from Abu Hurayrah, who said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
When three things appear faith will not benefit one who has not previously believed or has derived no good from his faith: the rising of the sun in its place of setting, the Dajjal, and the beast of the earth.
ثلاث إذا خرجن لا ينفع نفساً إيمانها لم تكن آمنت من قبل أو كسبت في إيمانها خيراً طلوع الشمس من مغربها والدجال ودابة الأرضAnd from Abu Dharr, who said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said when the sun set: Where does it go? I said: Allah and His Messenger know best...
The Shaykh : Did he say "Did he say"? And from Abu Dharr.
The reader: And from Abu Dharr, who said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said when the sun set: Where does it go? I said
The Shaykh : Do you know where it goes?
The reader: أتدري أين تذهب؟ قلت: الله ورسوله أعلم، قال: فإنها تذهب حتى تسجد تحت العرش فتستأذن فيؤذن لها ويوشك أن تسجد ولا يقبل منها وتستأذن فلا يؤذن لها ويقال لها ارجعي من حيث جئتي فتطلع من مغربها فذلك قوله تعالى: والشمس تجري لمستقر لها قال مستقرها تحت العرش Do you know where it goes?

Agreed upon by al-Bukhari and Muslim.
And from Imran ibn Husayn, who said: I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say:
Between time of the creation of Adam and the Resurrection Day, there is nothing greater than the mischief of Dajjal (the Antichrist).
ما بين خلق آدم إلى قيام الساعة أمر أكبر من الدّجالThe Shaykh : greater
The reader:
greater than the Dajjal
أكبرُ من الدجالAnd from Abdullah, who said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
God is not hidden from you, God most high is not one-eyed, but the antichrist is blind in the right eye, his eye looking like a floating grape.
إن الله لا يخفى عليكم، إن الله تعالى ليس بأعور وإن المسيح الدّجال أعور عين اليمنى كأن عينه عنبة طافيةAnd from Anas, who said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
There is no prophet who has not warned his people about the one-eyed liar. I tell you that he is one-eyed, but your Lord is not one-eyed. On his forehead are the letters k, f, r.
ما من نبي إلا أنذر أمّته الأعور الكذاب ألا إنه أعور وإن ربكم ليس بأعور مكتوب بين عينيه كفرThe Shaykh : disbelieved.
The reader:
Disbelief
كَفَرَShall I not tell you about the Dajjal a story of which no prophet told his nation?
ألا أحدثكم حديثاً عن الدّجّال ما حدّث به نبي قومه ..The Shaykh : This hadith is long.
The reader: Yes, indeed.
The Shaykh : In the name of Allah, the Most Merciful, the Most Compassionate. We mentioned previously the signs of the Hour and clarified that they are divided into what?
